Is my Z threatening?

I think the whole redneck truck thing just comes down to them not being aware physics. I mean, a big V8 is always better than a V6, right? Given that

I think the whole redneck truck thing just comes down to them not being aware physics. I mean, a big V8 is always better than a V6, right? Given that trucks are almost twice the weight and mass of a Z, they would know better. There will always be people like this, just like there will always be people that give the thumbs up or compliment. Maybe its just that the Z will always turn heads no matter the feeling it gives, unlike the dime a dozen truck or muscle car. It is why when I want to sum up in one word what a Z is, it is "provocative". Just the nature of owning one.

I’ve let all the servers at my golf club (that could drive a manual) take Mz Daizy for a ride. It always pays to have low friends in high places!

So the other day when one of them was going on about what a great car it is, and how she now wants one, blah blah blah...

My wife says “I don’t understand why everyone LOVES that car”.

We always answer “have you driven it”? (no, she hasn’t it)

She says no! It’s too small, too low, too loud, and too fast! We always laugh. My wife thinks the coolest car in the world is her 2007 VW BUG ragtop.

To each his own, right!
